This whole paint ball idea is a little too intriguing, isn't it?!!? I mean its a defensive move that has real possibilites... but here's one more: How about one of those Stun Guns that shoots the electrode on a tether, the degree of Crispiness to be determined by the offended. Now i don't think an occupant would feel the jolt (assuming we aimed for the car, not the driver. right?) but i bet 60,000 volts would sure turn off his ECU for a spell. When the car would die, it would drift back from your bumper, pulling on the tether and releasing the electrode dart, leaving nary a trace. some field testing may have to be done to verify this and to develop a effective dart for metal (magnetic??) but i think it would be stitch to use. -dan
